For My Dad

My parent's 41st anniversary was at the beginning of the month and this was the card I made for my dad. I was so proud with the way that it came out. I have to admit that I got the idea from someone else I don't know that they would necessarily appreciate it because they made it for a dress and when I saw it I kinda saw the wrench immediately.


It was Sharon Johnson's cocktail dress. I printed her templated and instead of just doing the neckline on just one side I did it on both sides. I then covered the cardstock over with the metal. I drew in the lines to give it character in distress it. I used the MM die stamp to put Stanley on the front with Prussian Blue Copic to color it in. The inside held a Gift Card for Harbor Freight and a Subscription to Consumer Reports to I made the inside to look like what Julie Buhler did on her blog.
